The AACN Research Leadership Network (RLN) invites nursing faculty who have leadership roles facilitating research within their nursing programs to this annual breakfast workshop on advancing nursing science with cutting-edge research methods. Our theme this year aims to reflect the complex and evolving landscape of nursing research, with a focus on practical strategies for overcoming challenges, fostering innovation, and building strong leaderships and collaborative networks. It emphasizes the importance of connecting researchers, mentoring emerging scholars, and embracing new methodologies—all while staying grounded in the realities of the current research environment.
